I use DSL in my shed (love it) and I used to use it for email and the web until I added a wireless card ( which I have to use in my new non-wired house).The card is not recognised. It seems to only find the old wired card (eth0). Also I live in town so I use WEP encryption.

1 How do you go about trying to make DSL find the card?

2. Is it ennough to just find it or do you have to install software for it?

3. Can you configure encryption. I have an (??) SSID name for my network which seems like a windows workgroup?I have a text code for WEP which seems to generate several HEX strings.

The networking HOWTO's I have found so far seem:1. Pretty heavy2. Dont talk much about wireless3. May mention Debian but dont say anything about DSL

I am at work at the moment but my card is a Netgear 3.111gor something like that (definitely a g).

HI! I had problems with wireless cards for a looong time under linux (Not DSL, but still Linux). But someday I got this ZyAir B-100 which is based on the orinoco chipset which is supported by linux. Well, it was plug-and-play under redhat and knoppix hdinstall and of the CD. I'm downloading DSL right now. I'll tell you if it works. You probably have a different wireless card, so this probably didn't help, but if you only use Linux you could invest in a B-100.

I also have a belkin wireless pcmcia card version 2 and have problems having it recognized. Can you give me detailed instructions on exactly how to install atmelwlandriver. Ive tried looking on the internet and following posted instructions with no luck. for some reason when I get to the part "make config" its not recognized. Thanks,
